Las Penitas is really good. I got the asada and pork tacos and I liked both meats a lot.

A little disappointed... ordered the carne asada burrito, not what I expected! Tasteless except for the salt which was overbearing. The atmosphere and personal were very nice , but the food , well not so much. read more

Killer burritos for an amazing price. I don't live in the area, but every time I'm headed to Jackson or Yellowstone, I stop here without fail. read more

I ordered a carne Asada burrito, was the absolute worst burrito, the meat was like sludge . And had the taste of days old meat ,lard soaked . was more like stew meat and had that walk in refrigerator flavor ,,, definitely wasn't today's meat.... I will never go back, what was also disappointing was the burrito was 90% rice filled.... No Bueno. You lost 2 customers for life today .... read more

Their super burrito is the best burrito i have ever had!!!! I get it with carnitas (fried pork). It's huge, really 2 servings. Also, if you love spicy food you will LOVE their red sauce, but be careful , it is HOT. ALWAYS get very friendly service. Always amazing food 100000/10 recommend read more

Great burritos and tacos. Best street tacos in Pocatello. Go, just go to this place. Your taste buds will thank me...

Great food, will definitely be back! Good price for a big burrito and special order was done correctly!

We are from Los Angeles, parents wanted some good tacos and heard of this place having a line of people in the morning, anyhow decide to come check it out. We arrive and it's a small spot, seems busy, being almost the only Mexican place to eat that's cheapy. Tacos were ok, flautas de pollo were short and a bit cold,, enchiladas de pollo were good, rice was clumpy, beans were good. Service was nice, they had music flowing, you felt that vibe. Definitely will go back for the menudo, to try it out. read more

Of all the things to order and not get any flavor in it.... I ordered asada tacos and it was plain Jane flavor wise. I'm not sure how it has almost five stars. It was clean inside and the staff seemed nice but it definitely did not have any authenticity to the food. read more

The food is so good and the service is always fast! If you're looking for authentic street tacos you found your place!

This place was so good! Went in and asked for suggestions, there was a lady that suggested the sopes. I got three with different meats. They also brought out some delicious sauces. Everything was delicious! The restaurant is old and a little run down... but delicious, and a great value! read more

It's nice to find an authentic, tasty, reasonably priced Mexican restaurant. The tacos here are some the best I've had. The taste, texture, presentation, and service were all on point. I can't wait to come back here. The red sauce that came with the tacos was a bit too spicy for me, but the green sauce was one of the greatest things I've ever tasted. There is generous green salsa on all of the tacos, as well as plenty of onions and cilantro. read more

Las Peñitas - The best place. - Mexican Near Me - Pocatello, Idaho

So my hubby and I have a rule about trying Mexican food outside of California, Arizona, or Mexico. We don't do it. We have been disappointed so many times. But Our travel companion really wanted Mexican food. So I'm scrolling thru Yelp looking for dinner options and I see that Las Peñitas is 4.7 stars. I read all the reviews and we decided to give it a try. We tried a wide range of dishes and everything was amazing! The reviews talked about street tacos. The presentation is street taco but the tortillas are more like regular corn tortillas. So we ordered way too much. But it was all so good we ate as much as we could. We tried chicken, spicy pork carnitas, and asada. We had an enchilada plate, tacos, a quesadilla, and a mulita. I enjoyed the rice and beans on the enchilada plate. Their sauces are good. The mulita and quesadilla were excellent! And the tacos were on point. I am so glad we broke our rules and tried this place. read more

big ole burritos, quick, cheap 6.50 for super burrito. Stuffed with meat probably 3 pounds of burrito.

Las Peñitas - 32 oz (large) Jamaica. Soooo good - Mexican Near Me - Pocatello, Idaho

Undoubtedly, the BEST Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. A small place, but it sure does pack a punch with quality food and customer service. I ordered 3 lengua tacos, a side of rice and beans, 2 bottled sodas, and my husband ordered the Super burrito- $20. PLENTY of food- we left stuffed. They brought the food out to us faster than we could sit down at the table. We WILL be back, probably for lunch and dinner for the remainder of our stay. Just, amazing. read more

Great food, great service! Moved up here from Phoenix just over a year ago and didn't think I'd find a good Mexican food spot. Boy was I wrong. The taco truck next door is equally as good. I believe it's the owners brother. read more

Been to a lot of Mexican places traveling. Below average for sure.... Rice very bad. Had a side of it and ate 2 bites. It was In carne asada burrito so ruined that a bit. Spicy pork taco good. Both sauces good read more

What a horrible experience. Start to finish. Ordered a simple combo, half dozen tacos and a side of beans. To go.. I'll try to describe the ordeal. First off it took almost an hour. Then they left the order sitting on the counter waiting. But, didn't bother to say anything. That left everything cold. The Carnitas... sad. So dry, I'm still waiting for the dust to clear. And don't bother asking for carrots. The arrogant racist waitress will tell you, they are too upscale for that. Nor, do they have salsa for the tacos. But, be ready for degrading racist language, if you don't leave a tip. Hint - Gringa estupido, isn't a difficult translation. Again, what a horrible experience. Just do Taco Bell and enjoy. read more

Great food excellent service, local owned, and unbeatable prices. Definitely best Mexican food in town

Delicious authentic Mexican food! Great service! Awesome ambiance. Tasty and affordable. Great for a family.

Fast and friendly. Easy to get to. Torta Carnitas!!!!!!!! Yummy and fresh! Definitely recommend!

Small hole in the wall and absolutely DELICIOUS! Chicken taquitos were very tasty, carne asada taco was the best I have had in Idaho this far and the bean and cheese burrito was simple but one of the best I have eaten. We shared the food having a taste of it all and for sure we will be back. I just loved the food. read more
